HealthSpace boost from survey

6th October 2009

A poll carried out by E-Health Insider and Doctors.net has found strong backing for HealthSpace in the provision of electronic patient records.

90% of E-Health Insider users and 81% of Doctors.net users said that developing HealthSpace further was better than allowing private companies to come up with related products. Dr Gillian Braunold, the clinical director of HealthSpace, said: "I think it is fantastic that people don’t want Google or HealthVault coming in. The NHS is a body that people trust. They have confidence that it will not exploit their information."
